Synthesising existing evidence
Literature reviews on the distribution of fungal pathogens and the links between climate and fungi.
Fungal burden, risk and the impacts of climate
Building the evidence base to understand where the world's most important human fungal pathogens are and how a changing climate may affect them.
Learn moreWhy it matters
Fungal infections can be life-threatening, yet their global burden is poorly understood. Climate variability and climate change may influence the emergence, distribution and spread of human fungal pathogens, but the evidence is fragmented.
FABRIC is building a comprehensive evidence base to inform future research and public health action.
What we are doing
Mapping available data
Audits of fungal and climate datasets, including surveillance, diagnostics and genomic resources.
Using AI and large language models
Designing human-in-the-loop systems to support tasks from literature screening to data extraction.
Our aim
To guide future research on fungal burden and climate-sensitive fungal disease.
